Answer:

  c.  35.34015106

Step-by-step explanation:

As with many problems of this nature, you only need to get close to be able to choose the correct answer. 22 minutes 45 seconds is just slightly less than 1/2 degree (30 minutes), so the tangent value will be just slightly less than tan(88.5°) ≈ 38. The appropriate choice is 35.34015106.

If you need confirmation, you can find tan(88°) ≈ 29, so you know the answer will be between 29 and 38.

__

The above has to do with strategies for choosing answers on multiple-choice problems. Below, we will work the problem.

The angle is (in degrees) ...

  88 + 22/60 +45/3600 = 88 + (22·60 +45)/3600 = 88 +1365/3600

  ≈ 88.3791666... (repeating) . . . . degrees

A calculator tells you the tangent of that is ...

  tan(88.3791666...°) ≈ 35.3401510614

Many calculators will round that to 10 digits, as in the answer above. Others can give a value correct to 32 digits. Spreadsheet values will often be correct to 15 or 16 digits.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C=9P

P=2(L+W)

C=18(L+W)

C=18(8(12)+7(12))

C=18(96+84)

C=18(180)

C=$3240

So you do not have enough money to enclose the property.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

45 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem. Imagine a line connecting the ends of the right angle you made by driving. It would make a right triangle. You are trying to find the hypotenuse. Use the formula a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}. Square 27, or multiply 27 by 27, to get 729. Add this to the square of 36, 1296. So c^{2} = 2025. Find the square root of 2025. \sqrt{2025} = 45. Hope this helped ^^
